Here is an update of the Oak Leaf that I am working on. I finally finished prepping the leaf itself and after rounding out the tips a bit, I finally was able to do the exciting part of this project: enameling!
I used my jewelry torch to enamel glass powder over the top; so basically you end up with a lovely glass layer fused to the metal. This is something I just love to do!
The green I used is Jungle green; it's a vibrant green which I find looks great for leaves!
I am very pleased with how it turned out.
I am now working on the acorn part of the pendant which will dangle freely on
the necklace along the leaf.
